[00:33.338]I found her wandering in the wood
[00:34.898]This little child, I found her trembling in the shadows
[00:38.880]And I am here to help Cosette
[00:39.848]
[00:40.578]And I will settle any debt you may think proper
[00:41.958]
[00:44.80]I will pay what I must pay
[00:48.238]
[00:49.80]To take Cosette away.
[00:52.598]
[00:58.598]There is a duty I must heed,
[01:01.918]
[01:03.990]There is a promise I have made
[01:08.298]For I was blind to one in need
[01:11.180]
[01:13.180]I did not see what stood before me
[01:16.578]
[01:19.328]Now her mother is with God
[01:22.328]
[01:25.279]Fantine's suffering is over
[01:28.268]
[01:31.149]And I speak here with her voice
[01:34.228]
[01:36.978]And I stand here in her place
[01:44.500]
[01:45.980]And from this day and evermore
[01:48.529]Let me have your coat, M'sieur
[01:51.399]Cosette shall live in my protection
[01:54.559]You are very welcome here
[01:57.498]I will not forsake my vow
[02:01.380]Take a glass
[02:02.500]Take a chair
[02:04.500]Cosette shall have a father now!
[02:11.200]
[02:17.260]What to do? What to say?
[02:21.579]Shall you carry our treasure away?
[02:25.510]What a gem! What a pearl!
[02:29.339]Beyond rubies is our little girl!
[02:33.390]How can we speak of debt?
[02:37.209]Let's not haggle for darling Cosette!
[02:43.79]Dear Fantine, gone to rest
[02:47.269]Have we done for her child what is best?
[02:52.100]Shared our bread, shared each bone
[02:55.339]Treated her like she's one of our own!
[02:59.299]Like our own, Monsieur!
[03:03.799]Your feelings do you credit, sir
[03:06.350]And I will ease the parting blow
[03:09.700]Let us not talk of bargains or bones or greed
[03:14.899]Now, may I say, we are agreed?
[03:19.19]
[03:20.839]That would quite fit the bill
[03:25.299]If she hadn't so often been ill
[03:29.100]Little dear, cost us dear
[03:33.100]Medicines are expensive, M'sieur
[03:37.190]Not that we begrudged a sou
[03:40.190]It's no more than we Christians must do!
[03:46.500]
[03:48.70]One thing more, one small doubt
[03:52.130]There are treacherous people about
[03:56.10]No offense, please reflect
[03:59.959]Your intentions may not be... correct?
[04:04.560]
[04:06.250]No more words, here's your price.
[04:09.810]Fifteen hundred for your sacrifice
[04:13.940]Come, Cosette, say goodbye,
[04:17.829]Let us seek out to friendlier sky.
[04:21.529]Thank you both for Cosette
[04:25.159]It won't take you too long to forget.
[04:29.900]
[04:49.200]Come, Cosette, come, my dear
[04:52.700]From now on I will always be here
[04:56.550]Where I go, you will be.
[05:00.39]Will there be castles and children to see?
[05:04.360]Yes, Cosette,
[05:07.200]Yes, it's true
[05:08.300]There's a castle just waiting for you...
